Right Joy-Con Joystick Replacement

Introducción

Ir al paso 1 ↓

The Nintendo Switch comes with two Joy-Con controllers. This guide will show you how to replace the joystick of the right Joy-Con. The procedure for repairing the left Joy-Con is different, so be sure to follow the correct set of instructions for your controller.

Please note that this repair does not have the same steps as the left Joy-Con. If you are looking to replace the left Joystick, please follow my other guide with the specific details.

      • Remove the four tri-point Y00 screws from the back panel of the Joy-Con.

      • These screws are each 6.2 mm long, but it's still a good idea to keep them organized and make sure they go back in their proper holes!

      • Insert an opening pick under the lower side of the back panel (opposite the R and ZR buttons).

      • Slide the flat edge of an opening pick up the side of the Joy-Con.

      • Be careful not to slide the opening pick too far inside the Joy-Con. This may damage the inner components. The back panel has shallow interference-fit tabs on the side opposite the charging rail. These loosen fairly easily, so not much pressure is needed.

      • Open the Joy-Con like a book, with the charging rail facing away from you.

      • Don’t try to fully remove the back panel yet. There are still two cables connecting the charging rail to the motherboard.

      • During reassembly, make sure the SL/SR cable is lightly bent under the battery compartment before clipping the two halves of the joy‑con together. Otherwise, you might crease the cable and damage it.

      • Use a spudger to gently pry the battery connector from its socket on the motherboard. This will keep the Joy-Con from powering on during the repair.

      • Be extremely careful while you pry up the battery connector. If it does not come up easily, try gently pulling on the wires to disconnect it.

      • The following two steps show the removal of the battery and the coaxial antenna cable from the midframe. These two steps make for a less cluttered repair, but are not essential. If you want, you can leave the battery and the grey coax cable in place here and proceed to step 7.

      • Insert an opening pick between the battery and the Joy-Con housing. Gently pry out the battery, which is lightly taped in place.

      • Be careful not to deform or puncture the battery—it can catch fire or explode if damaged.

      • Before you perform this step, take note of how the antenna cable and its PCB are seated for proper reassembly later.

      • Carefully de-thread the upper half of the grey antenna cable out of the battery cavity.

      • Pry up with the pointy end of a spudger to disconnect the antenna cable's coaxial connector from the motherboard.

      • Remove the grey antenna cable.

      • During reassembly, reconnect the antenna cable, then make sure it is routed through the battery cavity in the midframe as it was before you took it out.

      • Remove the three 3.5 mm Phillips #00 screws on midframe.

      • Do not attempt to remove the midframe yet. There is a fragile cable that still connects the ZR button on the midframe to the motherboard underneath.

      • The ZR button cable in this Joy-Con is short and can be tricky to reconnect. You can skip this step and leave it connected, but be careful not to strain it.

      • If you choose to disconnect it:

      • The ZR button cable is locked in place by a small ZIF connector on the motherboard. Use tweezers or a spudger to flip up the ZIF connector lock.

      • Use tweezers to gently pull the ZR button flex cable out of the ZIF connector socket. The midframe is now disconnected and can be removed.

      • Carefully remove the joystick from its housing.

      • There is a thin black gasket around the hole where the joystick pokes through the Joy-Con. Do your best not to disturb this gasket as you remove the joystick!

      • Once the Joy-Con is fully reassembled, connect it to your Nintendo Switch and calibrate the new joystick. Additionally, you may need to power cycle your Switch by holding down the power button for 10-15 seconds until it turns off, then turning it back on.

A good guide though for the antenna instead of disconnecting the cable it would be easier to simply slide out the plate and wire from the side of the battery tray

Tyler Karabin - Contestar Compartir

Agree with Tyler - no need to disconnect the antenna.

Thanks for the guide!

The antenna and battery don’t need to be disconnected, you can easily move them out of the way.

When reassembling, reconnecting the ribbon cable for the RL button is fiddly, easier if you can avoid disconnecting it as well. Just rotate the plastic battery plate a quarter turn counterclockwise to get it out of the way and access the analog stick.

You can test the controller immediately after seating the joystick to make sure the ribbon cable is properly connected.

In agreement with the others, antenna definitely doesn’t need to be removed. Also noticed that the Y000 bit worked a lot better than the Y00 for the outside screws.

Hello I have followed the guide succesfully for the most part, however the joy con doesn’t seem to power up after reconnecting the battery and the anthenna. I even tried swapping the batteries between joy- cons and battery from the right one does work in the left one. The right joy con doesn’t turn on even with the other battery inserted. Any ideas?
